I thought about the Q701 pads... but I haven't used them since purchasing the memory pads. I'm going to just keep using the memeory pads I ordered and sell the brand new Annie pads to anyone willing to upgrade their Q701. If no one buys them than I'll just have an extra pair.

I think the only way I review the X1 is if someone sends it to me as a loaner. I can't commit to it right now, and I think if the KS-H1 ends up not being what I want, I think I should stop beating around the bush and try for the D7000 again, or at least the Fostex TH-600 which is apparently in between the D7000 and LCD2 is tonal balance. Those are my two fave cans, so it sounds appealing.

You should buy the memory pads from me whenever you get the Q701... they will be brand new and for a fair price compared to what AKG will charge you. That way you can change pads whenever you want.

Edit: Don't be scared of commitment lol

The only reason I'd ever get lawton pads is because it's real leather, and will be because it's less sweaty than the pleather. If it attempts to fix anything, I'd hate the pads.

If I wanted less bass, I'd get the millions of other headphones that copy one another. The D7000 is one of the only high end headphones that thrives on it's bass.Edited by Mad Lust Envy - 5/26/13 at 2:26pm

What about them? The D7000 is a bass and treble oriented headphone. If I wanted more mids, I'd get a headphone that specializes in mids. As for isolation, I personally couldn't care less about that. I'd be just as happy if the D7000 was open with the same sound.

I owned both, I loved both. The changes arent as significant as people think. They're both quite sub bass heavy, with sparkly treble, and mids that are slightly recessed, but unhampered by mid bass.

If the lawton pads attempt to reduce bass, it's an absolute failure to me. Why the hell would anyone try to take away what makes Denons...Denons? Get an LCD2 if you want better mids while retaining some (SOME) good bass.

Nothing can touch the D7000 to me. The fact everyone says the two new Fostex have less bass, means they aren't as memorable to me.Edited by Mad Lust Envy - 5/26/13 at 2:43pm
